Hi James, Welcome back to the PNW! It's been kind of a cool summer, weather-wise. Today will be the 3rd day of 80* weather this summer, unlike the rest of the country that has been in the upper 90's to over 100*. Here is a link with events taking place in Seattle and the surrounding area: Car shows and events: http://www.oldride.com/events/washington_carshow.html You can visit the Hydroplane museum in Kent: http://thunderboats.ning.com/ Or you can visit the Museum of Flight by Boeing in Seattle: http://www.museumofflight.org/ Enjoy!
The museum of flight is awesome, me and the kids went there every year for fathers day. And thanks guys for the info.
Hell with the boats, They can't get any traction anyway. See the Le May cars. Let me know and we will set you up. UGOTPK
Isn't GG/Spokane in early August? Just a quick hop over from SEA to SKA....weather's always great that time of year. dj
If looking for micro brews and great bar food, anything with McMennamins in the name is worth a stop for a cold one and a look around. I really enjoyed the Six Arms which is really close to the I-5. Also, Dad Watsons or Queen Anne.
You might want to avoid any lowrider shows. Last weekend the lowriders in Seattle started shooting and 10 people were injured. It was in the news
